Topsy-Turvy

Let me say that I did really well last week!!!  I did my homework the day it was assigned and I was done each day before 5:30.  For me, that is impressive!  Fortunately there is a coffee shop right across from campus that serves as a great study place. (I only got a drink once) 

I feel so collegiate!  

This week has gone by so quickly. Martin Luther King, Jr. Day was Monday so no class that day and I only have one class on Fridays, so short day there.  Really I was in school 3 1/2 days this week.  I feel like it only started yesterday...oh well, certainly not complaining.  

This week didn't go as well/smoothly as last week.  I completely missed two assignments!  Luckily they weren't "important."  It will be easy to catch up though, that is a definite plus.  Today (Thursday) was a total wreck.  I woke up 15 minutes late, and had to rush through a response I needed to write for my morning class.  Therefore I left home 30 minutes behind schedule.  When I got to class this morning (on time, thank you Jesus), I found out I missed a reading assignment.  Then, I checked my email and found out that I was on the docket for a poetry workshop that afternoon.  Two original poems - 15 copies each.  I totally misread the syllabus and thought I had until February 15.  Nope - Today!  So I quickly wrote two poems between classes, then was late to class because I had to print and copy the stupid things.  

         And guess what?  

We ran out of time in class, 

and I didn't have to workshop today.  

 

Kind of a blessing, but kinda annoying at the same time.

Needless to say, I came straight to my K-home (that is my home in Kearney) and organized myself.  I added everything to my checklist and checked syllabi to ensure all items made it to the list.  Also, I checked my email again to make sure I didn't miss anything.  I am back on track now.  

I don't know  how I made it through college the first time!!  I was nowhere near this organized the first time.  A day like this would not have stressed me out very much.  But I just felt like my entire world went topsy-turvy.  It's over now, and the weekend is almost here.  Thank you Jesus!!!

I started attending a Bible study (did I already tell you that?)  We are going through John MacArthur's book, Twelve Extraordinary Women.  So far it is pretty good.  This week we looked at Sarah (Sari).  I have to admit, I have never been a fan of Sari, but I think I respect her more now.  I'll have to tell you about it some other time.  

Good Night!
